OBJECTIVETo evaluate therapeutic effect of Sishen Wan on experimental colitis, and explore its mechanism by expression of Bax/Bcl-2 mRNA, Fas/FasL in colonic tissue.
METHODExperimental colitis was induced by rectal administration of trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS) dissolved in ethanol. The model animals were divided into four groups: the induced colitis but untreated group, the induced colitis groups treated with the high, middle, low dose of Sishen Wan, and the induced colitis group treated with salicylazosulfapyridine (SASP). After 10 day administration, the body weight, colonic wet weight, colonic weight index, colonic damage score and pathological change were evaluated, and the level of Fas and FasL by flow cytometry, Bax mRNA and Bcl-2 mRNA by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCT).
RESULTCompared with the model group, the colonic wet weight and colonic weight index were remarkably decreased in the middle dose of Sishen Wan group (P < 0.05). The colonic injury scores were significantly reduced after rats were treated with the three doses of Sishen Wan (P < 0.05). Representative restored features were observed including fewer inflammatory cellular infiltration and follicular hyperplasia, superficial and little ulcer with fibroplasia in colonic mucosa from the treated groups. The expression of Fas in the colonic mucosa was obviously down-regulated (P < 0.05) and the ratio of Bcl-2 mRNA/Bax mRNA was significantly up-regulated (P < 0.05) in the groups treated with the three doses of Sishen Wan.
CONCLUSIONSishen Wan might postpone colonic epithelium apoptosis or improve inflammatory cell apoptosis by regulating the expression of Fas/ FasL and Bax/Bcl-2 mRNA in colonic tissue, which is possible potential path to effectively treat experimental colitis by enema.

To explore the relationship between blood level of big endothelin and contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) in patients with emergent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: A total of 1061 consecutive patients received emergent PCI in our hospital from 2013-01 to 2015-06 were enrolled. According to blood levels of big endothelin, the patients were divided into 2 groups: Normal big endothelin group, n=236 and Elevated big endothelin group, n=825. The baseline condition, procedural features, occurrence rate of CI-AKI and composite endpoint events at 6 and 12 months post-operation were studied which including nonfatal myocardial infarction, revascularization, stroke and all-cause death. The risk factors for CI-AKI occurrence were identified by Logistic analysis. Results: The overall occurrence rate of CI-AKI was 22.7% (241/1061). Compared with Normal big endothelin group, Elevated big endothelin group had the higher incidence of CI-AKI, increased composite endpoint events at 6 and 12 months post-operation with P=0.041, P=0.040 and P=0.021, respectively. With adjusted covariates, elevated blood level of big endothelin, no matter as a continuous variable or categorical variable had the enhanced risk of CI-AKI incidence in patients after emergent PCI. Conclusion: Elevated blood level of big endothelin may significantly increase the risk of CI-AKI in patients with emergent PCI.

The protective effect and mechanism of diazepam on ischemia neurons during cerebral ischemia and reperfusion were studied. Sixty-three Wistar rats were divided randomly into nine groups: control group (n=7), ischemia (is) groups including subgroups of is3h, is3-h/rep1-h, is3-h/rep2-h, is3-h/rep3-h(n=7 in each group), diazepam treated groups (10 mg/kg, i.p.), including subgroups of is3-h, is3-h/rep1-h, is3-h/rep2-h, is3-h/rep3-h (n=7 in each group) with Zea longa's animal model of middle cerebral artery occlusion. The comparison between the ischemia group and diazepam-treated group showed that diazepam could obviously decrease the production of glutamate, asparate, MDA and increase the synthesis and release of GABA, SOD and GSH-PX. It was concluded that diazepam exerted its protective effects on neurons through complex mechanisms of regulating the synthesis and release of excitotary/inhibitory amino acids and free radicals.

Objective:To observe the effect of goal-oriented management of continuous monitoring of regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO 2) on early postoperative neurocognitive disorders (PND) in elderly spinal surgery patients. Methods:From November 2018 to July 2019, 60 patients undergoing posterior lumbar interbody fusion in the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University were selected and randomly divided into control group and intervention group, 30 cases in each group. RSO 2 was recorded before anesthesia induction (T 0), 10 min after anesthesia induction (T 1), 10 min after prone position (T 2), 10 min after spinal decompression (T 3), 30 min after spinal decompression (T 4) and 10 min after extubation (T 5); The basic value of rSO 2, the minimum value of rSO 2 (rSO 2min), the average value of rSO 2 (rSO 2mean) and the maximum percentage of decrease of rSO 2 (rSO 2% max) were recorded. When rSO 2 <55% or rSO 2% max >10% and the duration was longer than 15 s, the intervention group took measures such as adjusting head position, adjusting blood pressure, increasing FiO 2 and respiratory parameters, increasing P ETCO 2 until rSO 2 returned to the required range; The control group did not interfere with the intraoperative rSO 2. Neuropsychological tests were used to evaluate the cognitive function of the two groups 7 days after operation. The patients were followed up 30 days after operation with the revised cognitive function telephone questionnaire (TICS-M). The incidence of postoperative neurocognitive impairment (PND) was recorded. The perioperative data and postoperative adverse reactions of the two groups were recorded. Results:At T 3 and T 4, the rSO 2 of the intervention group was significantly higher than that of the control group ( P<0.01), the intraoperative rSO 2min and rSO 2mean of the intervention group were higher than the control group, and the rSO 2%max was lower than the control group ( P<0.05). The incidence of PND 7 days after surgery, extubation time, postanesthesia care unit (PACU) stay time, hospital stay and postoperative adverse reactions in the intervention group were lower than those in the control group ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of PND 30 days after operation between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The goal-oriented management of rSO 2 can reduce the incidence of early postoperative PND in elderly spine surgery patients, which is conducive to the rapid recovery of patients after surgery.

Objective:
To investigate the incidence of microvascular myocardial ischemia in diabetic patients without obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) and its relationship with angina.
Materials and Methods:
Diabetic patients and an intermediate-to-high pretest probability of CAD were prospectively enrolled. Non-diabetic patients but with an intermediate-to-high pretest probability of CAD were retrospectively included as controls. The patients underwent dynamic computed tomography-myocardial perfusion imaging (CT-MPI) and coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) to quantify coronary stenosis, myocardial blood flow (MBF), and extracellular volume (ECV). The proportion of patients with microvascular myocardial ischemia, defined as any myocardial segment with a mean MBF ≤ of 100 mL/min/100 mL, in patients without obstructive CAD (Coronary Artery Disease–Reporting and Data System [CAD-RADS] grade 0–2 on CCTA) was determined. Various quantitative parameters of the patients with and without diabetes without obstructive CAD were compared. Multivariable analysis was used to determine the association between microvascular myocardial ischemia and angina symptoms in diabetic patients without obstructive CAD.
Results:
One hundred and fifty-two diabetic patients (mean age: 59.7 ± 10.7; 77 males) and 266 non-diabetic patients (62.0 ± 12.3; 167 males) were enrolled; CCTA revealed 113 and 155 patients without obstructive CAD, respectively. For patients without obstructive CAD, the mean global MBF was significantly lower for those with diabetes than for those without (152.8 mL/min/100 mL vs. 170.4 mL/min/100 mL, P < 0.001). The mean ECV was significantly higher for diabetic patients (27.2% vs. 25.8%, P = 0.009). Among the patients without obstructive CAD, the incidence of microvascular myocardial ischemia (36.3% [41/113] vs. 10.3% [16/155], P < 0.001) and interstitial fibrosis (69.9% [79/113] vs. 33.3% [8/24], P = 0.001) were significantly higher in diabetic patients than in the controls. The presence of microvascular myocardial ischemia was independently associated with angina symptoms (adjusted odds ratio = 3.439, P = 0.037) in diabetic patients but without obstructive CAD.
Conclusion
Dynamic CT-MPI + CCTA revealed a high incidence of microvascular myocardial ischemia in diabetic patients without obstructive CAD. Microvascular myocardial ischemia is strongly associated with angina.
